Targeting Early Dementia: Using Lipid Cubic Phase Nanocarriers to Cross the Blood–Brain Barrier

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2018
Over the past decades, a frequent co-morbidity of cerebrovascular pathology and Alzheimer’s disease has been observed. Numerous published studies indicate that the preservation of a healthy cerebrovascular endothelium can be an important therapeutic ...

Scavenger receptor B2 as a receptor for hand, foot and Mouth disease and severe neurological diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is one of the major causative agents of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). Infection with EV71 is occasionally associated with severe neurological diseases such as acute encephalitis, acute flaccid paralysis and cardiopulmonary ...

Regulation of Platelet Function by Class B Scavenger Receptors in Hyperlipidemia [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2010
Platelets constitutively express class B scavenger receptors CD36 and SR-BI, 2 closely related pattern recognition receptors best known for their roles in lipoprotein and lipid metabolism. The biological role of scavenger receptors in platelets is poorly understood.

Transcriptional Regulation of Rat Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I Gene [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates the selective transport of lipids from high density lipoprotein to cells and plays an important role in the reverse uptake of cholesterol to the liver and in the delivery of substrates for steroidogenesis in steroidogenic organs.

SR-BI-directed HDL-cholesteryl ester hydrolysis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
We have examined the metabolic fate of HDL cholesteryl ester (CE) delivered to cells expressing scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Comparison of SR-BI with a related class B scavenger receptor, CD36, showed a greater uptake and a more rapid and ...

Soluble CD5 and CD6: Lymphocytic Class I Scavenger Receptors as Immunotherapeutic Agents

open access: yesCells, 2020
CD5 and CD6 are closely related signal-transducing class I scavenger receptors mainly expressed on lymphocytes. Both receptors are involved in the modulation of the activation and differentiation cell processes triggered by clonotypic antigen-specific ...

The class A scavenger receptor SR-A/CD204 and the class B scavenger receptor CD36 regulate immune functions of macrophages differently [PDF]

open access: yesInnate Immunity, 2013
SR-A/CD204 and CD36 are major receptors responsible for oxidized lipoproteins uptake by macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques. Both receptors also share the role as receptors for different pathogens, but studies on their signaling have been hampered by the lack of selective ligands.

Alzheimer’s Disease, Brain Injury, and C.N.S. Nanotherapy in Humans: Sonoporation Augmenting Drug Targeting

open access: yesMedical Sciences, 2017
Owing to the complexity of neurodegenerative diseases, multiple cellular types need to be targeted simultaneously in order for a given therapy to demonstrate any major effectiveness.

Lipoprotein Receptors Redundantly Participate in Entry of Hepatitis C Virus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
Scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1) and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) are known to be involved in entry of hepatitis C virus (HCV), but their precise roles and their interplay are not fully understood. In this study, deficiency of both SR-

CD36 does not play a direct role in HDL or LDL metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
CD36 and scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI) are both class B scavenger receptors that recognize a broad variety of ligands, including oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL), HDL, anionic phospholipids, and apoptotic cells.
